Hi.
Thanks for your feedback.

I’ll take a look at the tutorial to see what updates need to be made.
Regards,

Sara

Very out of date for vscode (June 2025). Most of the guide is not followable

So this just isn’t working. Tried on my work computer this afternoon and got the same results. Pymakr seems to be installed but not working. I’m going looking for a tutorial on using VSCode without pymakr. The pymakr getting started guide is pretty much useless as well.

Well I tried uninstalling everything and reinstalling but to no avail. Pymakr seems to be installed but not running on my VSCode.

The Pymakr extension is now installed on VS Code. The Pymakr Console will open, and you should have new commands at the bottom bar.

Pymakr Console does not open and I don’t have any new commands at the bottom. There is no “All Commands” at the bottom of my screen.

This instruction applies to Pymakr version 1.1.11 and today it has version 2.22.5 perhaps due to this situation when installing Pymakr it doesn’t match the explained instructions (Pymakr console doesnot open).

Hi.
Did you restart after install?
Does it display any message on the lower right corner?

Hi sara!
I have installed Node and VS Code properly, but the bottom bar is not violet, is black…

Then when i install the extension pymakr (the installation was fine), but the bottom bar is still black instead violet, and i dont have the Pymakr Console. of course i can configure the ESP32

Do you have any idea about where could be my mistake?

Cheers

Hi Sara,
After installing the extension, I don’t get the Pymakr commands at the bottom bar. All I see is the “home” icon for PlatformIO, and the bottom bar is blue instead of purple. How do I get the Pymakr bar?

Going further a bit, I’m presented with pymakr.conf, not pymakr.json. Is this because I’m suing a newer version of Pymakr (2.22.5) and vscode (1.70.2)?
